I apologize for showing up late to the Five Take party!
For any new faces, Five Take is where Becky, Gina, Nicole, Claire and I do our “take” on a particular theme to see the variety of ways to wear these themes, and this week was “Primary Colors”
This weekend I went from being stressed to completely useless, and I was just able today to do my Primary Colors post, which is a bit of a sad try to be honest. For some reason, my try at primary colors ended up being extremely spring-ish and completely wrong for the 50F, gray weather we’re having around here, but that’s the point of Five Take.. to try something even if it’s not your thing or to try something you don’t do well, to push you outside of your boundaries. Anyways, here is my try, and if any of the pictures have odd facial expressions, it’s because my brother was behind the camera messing with me by saying ridiculous things.
I went for blue and yellow, with this blue, bird print eShakti dress I’ve had for a few months, and this yellow striped sweater from Old Navy. I do like the clash of prints, I’m just not sure about the shape of each together, and my torn up, worn down flats aren’t helping anything!
I love the bird print of the dress, although the shape of it isn’t necessarily my favorite. As much as I like eShakti for allowing custom sizing, this dress (which I did customize) isn’t the best fitting and pulls oddly under my arms. I do like the braided detail under the bust, which you can see in the next picture, but I’m not sure this will ever be a “favorite”. I added a blue button ring I made this weekend, and I’m enjoying working the different ones into my wardrobe.

Do you wear a lot of primary colors or create color stories in your outfits? If not, do you see yourself integrating primary colors into your wardrobe?
